[Sister Becky Heath sang the song, "Agnus Dei." Following the song, the congregation spontaneously began worshipping and praising God. After about eight to ten minutes, Brother Bruce took his place at the pulpit. The worship continued for several minutes more during which Brother Bruce said, from time to time, "Worthy is the Lamb; Worthy is the Lamb; Praise the living God; Worthy is the Lamb; Thank You, Savior. Worthy is the Lamb; Lift your hand to Him; Worthy is the Lamb." Ed.]
Worthy is the Lamb. Worthy is the Lamb. That's the truth. Worthy is the Lamb. I don't think that it is getting late to say, "Worthy is the Lamb." He is worthy of all the praise and all the honor and all the glory and all the thanks. Worthy is the Lamb. Worthy is the Lamb. Worthy is the Lamb. Worthy is the Lamb. Worthy is the Lamb. Worthy is the Lamb. Worthy is the Lamb. Sing it out. Sing it out, everybody. [Song, "Agnus Dei" Much worship and praise by the congregation.] Lift your hands to Him if He is worthy, give Him a praise offering. Worthy is the Lamb. Worthy is the Lamb. Thank You. Praise Him, thank You. Sorry to cut it so short but we are on our Sixth Seal, tonight. We could have gone on worshipping the Lord, for the rest of the night. Worthy is the Lamb. He took the Book and opened the Seals in 1963. This is the reason for our gathering, our worship, our praise, our honor, yes, our hope, our salvation. The Lamb is Jesus Christ. He went to Calvary and died for our sins and He is the worshipped Person in our midst. We give Him all the glory and all the thanks, the honor that is due unto His holy Name. Oh Beloved, it is not getting too late in the least to just stop and worship Him and praise Him and honor Him and glorify His Name. Yes, He is worthy of this honor, worthy of this glory, worthy of this praise [Song, "Agnus Dei," again.] Praise Him. Worthy is the Lamb. Oh my Lord, worthy is the Lamb. Thank You, Savior. And I read:
May the Lord add a blessing to the reading of His holy Words, tonight. And we're having a wonderful time in the Presence of the Lord. It has fallen my lot today to preach on this dreadful Seal. And this dreadful Seal has to do with the judgments of God. Even from the very reading, you can understand that. And this is speaking of the judgments of God that are to come upon the world. The judgments of God were prophesied throughout the ages in the Old and the New Testament. And man took it for granted that, "That's a long time story." And the Bible said, "There shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as [they were] from the beginning of the creation…" All things continue as they are in sin." That's what they mean, "in sin," since the fathers fell asleep.
So the longsuffering of the Lord leads some to repentance. And what we just read there under the Sixth Seal is the judgments of God that will belch forth upon our generation. This is payday for the human race, all summed up under the Sixth Seal. Six billion people are about to face the wrath of God and they are going about their merry way, rejoicing and singing and wallowing in their sins, not knowing that judgment is already declared in the heavens. In 1963, there came the symbol of judgment over the land of America. And the United States is going to get it hot and heavy even before the rest of the world. Judgment hangs over America. The long awaited judgments of God. But the Lord is so loving. He's so kind. He is so wonderful to the human race that He sends them warnings after warnings. The longsuffering of God, waited in the days of Noah, a hundred and twenty years. He sent a prophet to warn them before the judgments came. I believe that the longsuffering of God is taken for granted and people just walk over His mercy and His grace because He suffers long. But one day, the Lord told Noah, "Get into the ark and shut the door." Oh Beloved. And the rain poured down and the springs bursted and the earth was flooded with water. Little children died. The scientists died. The doctors died. The educators died. The great men, the rich men, the poor, they cried for mercy in that time of judgment. And no mercy was given to them. According to the Scripture, eight people were saved who entered into the ark. When it rained upon the earth for forty days and forty nights, the number of judgment. So much, my brothers and sisters, is the mercy of God, even so much is His judgment. And this great judgment that was prophesied to come upon the face of the earth was told even from Genesis, right down to our day. But even though this judgment was broadcast by many prophets and great wise men and preachers for the past two thousand years, man never took heed. And not taking heed to the warnings of God, we have finally arrived. This generation has finally arrived to the place where it will be destroyed by fire. But before that burning, as prophesied in the Bible, there are many judgments to be outpoured upon the Gentiles, upon the people of the world, six billion people. It grieves the heart of a Christian. When you think of the little babies and the teenagers and the youths and you think, of the mass of humanity that is upon the face of the earth, that is about ready to face the judgments of God, it causes your heart to cry. But the Lord is a merciful God. The scripture over in the book of Malachi, the last book of the Old Testament, the last chapter, the Lord said that He will give a final warning in the last days before He brings that great Day of Judgment. This is not the great judgment of the White Throne. That's a different thing when all the human race will be judged for the deeds that they did in the body. But this is supposed to happen in our generation and we have proven it for the past week. But we have come up to this place where the world is facing the judgments of God. And in all of that, His great mercy, still lingereth. His mercy lingereth tonight and He has you in this place in order to give you a little warning if you have never heard. To remind the youths in this building, though you are a Christian. To remind the teenagers, here that life in itself is not made up of the things that you see around you. No, my Beloved. To remind us that He is a merciful God. But when His mercy is spurned He is a wrathful God. And it is written, "It is a fearful thing to fall into the hand of the living God." And it is written in the book of Malachi four, the last chapter of the Old Testament,
Oh, it pays to serve the Lord, Children. It pays to be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ. It pays to honor and respect the Name of God. It pays to turn away from our sins. And let me encourage you here tonight, who have chosen the way of the Lord. My beloved, your reward is sure. And you have made the greatest decision that you have ever made in all your life. Never let the enemy discourage you and make you think, my friends, that you are suffering and you are losing out on this world here. The hour is coming when billions of people, billions of teenagers, billions of pretty women, billions of educated people, billions, of smart people will be weeping and wailing and crying for mercy and no mercy will be given to them. This Seal is bringing out this. And although that judgment is prophesied and the Lord said that He would burn the earth, and we have the things right now to burn the earth, the atomic bomb. The volcanoes will erupt and holy Fire will come down from heaven. This sounds like a 'Nancy' story for two thousand years. But our Lord Jesus prophesied the same. And He told us about this day that the Lord will bring judgment upon the face of the earth. He said, "And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed." (Luke 17:26-30). It is likened unto Sodom. And in the time of Sodom, God sent forth an angel unto Abraham, the Elect. God, manifested in human flesh and He stayed with Abraham. And He sent forth two angels down to Sodom to burn Sodom. But when He went down to Sodom, Lot was reluctant to come out and was delaying and the angels grabbed their hands, one on either side and four people went out of Sodom. My Beloved, and those people was so wrapped up in the things of the world and the vices of Sodom and Lot's own wife was so wrapped up with the desires of Sodom that she was lost in the angel's hand. While the angel held her, she turned back and looked into Sodom in her heart and she turned into a pillar of salt. And this is the mercy of the Lord, today, that before He burns this world, like Sodom and Gomorrah, He has also sent forth a warning, and that warning is written in the book of Malachi, fourth chapter, fifth and the sixth verse: "Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse." I want to announce to you, my friends and visitors, that Elijah did come, he did bring a message, and he gave the world a warning. Oh, His mercy. And after that Elijah came to the face of the earth, that was the surest sign that the prophecy of the burning of the earth, was about to be fulfilled. When God sends a prophet upon the earth, he's a sign of judgment or mercy. When God sent Noah, it was a sign of judgment. When He sent forth Jonah, the prophet, it was a sign of judgment. But the loving God, in His mercy, oh Beloved, how great God is. That after He pronounced judgment by His servant, the people cried out and the king called a three day fast of both man and beast. And the Lord heard the cries of that sinful nation of Nineveh and He took back His Word and He deferred His judgment to another generation. It angered the prophet: but the mercy of God was expressed. world. And in this time of judgment the Lord is looking down, upon this great mass of humanity, not willing that any should perish but that all should come unto repentance. With a broken heart, a heart of sadness, He looks down upon man because they have chosen the wrong way. They have chosen the way of adultery, chosen the way of fornication, chosen the way of lies, chosen the way of theft, chosen the way of kidnapping, chosen the way of the vilest of sins, homosexuality, lesbianism, like in the days of Sodom and Gomorrah, and have turned away from God. And Him, knowing what is going to happen in the last day, He prophesied that He would burn the And over in the book of Isaiah thirteen, He even spoke in a greater way, explaining the judgments to come, knowing that the world would come to a place of judgment one of these days. We are a privileged people. And if you are a Christian here today, you are a privileged person. If your ears have heard and your eyes have seen and you have humbled your heart in the sight of God, to escape this judgment, you are a privileged person. There are some things that you need to know in order to escape the judgments of God.
Yes, my beloved, the Lord is speaking of judgment. But then, at the same time He prophesied the judgment to this world, He was also prophesying judgment to a certain nation as a type and a shadow to the judgments that now hang over the world. We are living in fearful times. That corresponds with Malachi 4:1, which says, "And all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble." We are living in the proudest generation that ever existed upon the face of the earth. Knowledge puffs up man. Yes, you are talking about the pride of children, the little ones, you cannot even tell them anything. They will turn right back and curse you to your face. You talking about the pride that leaks from the mouths of youths, killing their fathers and mothers, inspired by rock and roll music, inspired by the demons of hell, and the spirits that are loosed from Sodom and Gomorrah. We live in a terrible generation. This is that generation that the wise man spoke about:
Yes, he said that this generation shall be destroyed. It's a sad thing. As gospel preachers it fills our hearts with sorrow because our purpose is to call men to repentance. And it filled the heart of Almighty God with sorrow because He's not willing that any should perish but sin and God cannot co-exist. Man in the garden of Eden, when he was righteous they co-existed and they fellowshipped together, but when man fell by sin, there came a division between man and God. And ever since that man fell in the Garden of Eden, God has been hunting man. He came down and proved it. He said, "Adam…, Where art thou? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?" Since then God seeketh man to repent and His loving mercy took us through six thousand years but we have come to the end. We have come to the day, of His wrath. We have come to the day of His judgment. We have come to the day of the wrath of the Lamb and God, in His mercy, after six thousand years of warning and pleading with mankind, Friend, He still found in His heart to send forth a prophet in the end time. And this proud generation, proud about their religion, proud about their organization, proud about their Bible school, proud about their certificates, proud about their preachers' license, rejected that prophet. There is no place for a preacher's license, none for a Bible school, none of the apostles ever went to a Bible school, none of them carried a preacher's certificate. p>Like the Pharisees and the scribes, they have rejected this prophet. They have cursed the name of this prophet; they spread nasty rumors about this prophet. And Jesus said, "Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which shewed before of the coming of the Just One?" (Acts 7:52). If God sent a prophet upon this earth, you will hear nasty things about him, you will hear lies that the people are worshipping him and they love him more than the Lord Jesus. But the "worshipped Person" in our midst is the Lamb. As you heard tonight, "Worthy is the Lamb." And God, in all His pleading through six thousand years, He has come to that place of judgement. Every two thousand years, beloved, something took place upon the face of the earth. We have come to the place of another two thousand years. Yes, my friend; God has order. He just doesn't judge the world. He just doesn't come and say, "You're a sinner" and just do away with you. His mercy is so great, that when He sends forth His judgment He is justified. I believe God is justified in sending forth His judgments upon the world. They have rejected the Word; they have made the Bible a money-making racket; produced millions of impersonators, millions of heretics and billions of heresies. And because of these impersonators, because of these heretics and heresies, they have hardened the people's heart, as Jannes and Jambres in Egypt. Left to themselves, the people of Egypt would have repented, but those impersonators called Jannes and Jambres, duplicated the same signs and the same wonders that Moses did, and then the people's heart was hardened in the land of Egypt. And the Lord had to bring judgment, after judgment, after judgment, upon the land of Egypt in order to deliver His people. And this judgment is similar to that of the land of Egypt. If there is a sinner here, let me tell you, friend, you better repent, for the day of the wrath of the Lamb is at hand. Yes, you had better repent, little ones, if you are here and you have a vision of the world, you think that you want to run out into the world just now, you will be sorry for yourself. If you have an arrogant and a proud attitude, teenager, put that down. Beg God to take it away from you. That's the spirit of the age. You are rebellious to your father, rebellious to your mother, rebellious to your guardians, rebellious to the ministry. My beloved, beg God to humble your heart, because that proud spirit will lead you to destruction, it will do you no good. Humble your heart in the sight of God. In 1963, a cloud appeared over the land of America, symbolizing the judgments of God, twenty-six miles high and thirty miles across the sky. About that time God had this prophesy fulfilled: a man was upon the face of the earth, anointed by the spirit of Elijah, to read the handwriting in the sky like Daniel read the handwriting over the wall when God got ready to destroy the kingdom of Babylon and turn it over to the Medes and the Persians. We had a man today but people are so proud in their organizations and in their religions and their educations and their science, my friend, that they spurned the mercy of Almighty God. And God, declared the judgments in the heaven. In this year, 2003, is forty years. And forty is the number of judgment. Now that this time has come, forty years since the official warning, that God gave by His prophet and the great symbol that came down, my friend, we as the children of God, are expecting amateur judgments to increase. These amateur judgments are a forerunner to show you that there is a greater judgment to come. And why does the Lord send amateur judgment? It is His mercy, my friend. Isn't He loving? He sends judgments in small measures to awaken the people, to show them, if you don't behave, I'm going to pour down the real thing on you. Isn't He wonderful? Repent. Be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ. Turn from your fornication, turn from your adultery, turn from your wicked life, turn from cursing God, turn from religion, turn from organizations. Believe in one God. That's what the Lord is trying to say. Forty years have elapsed, and you can expect some judgment. After forty years, judgment will increase. Notice what happened in 2001 with the twin towers in N.Y. USA. We were approaching the fortieth year and we had something that shook the world. All right, notice at the beginning of this year, what happened, the great pride and the arrogancy of the scientists was humbled in our day, right in our year. How did I know that? I never knew that. I am only following the Bible numerology. And according to Bible numerology, after forty years of warning, the Lord is not responsible for anybody but yet, in His mercy, it still lingers. Somewhere in January, the whole world, that glorifies science, when they finished their missions in the heavens and just about three minutes or something to land. God humbled them before the whole world and burned up seven astronauts. Has the world paid any attention to that? It's a sign of judgment. Yes, God humbled science worldwide but they would not publish that very much. They could publish the advantage they take on the other nations but they would not publish how God humbled their arrogancy, humbled their pride and killed seven astronauts. My beloved, God sends judgments in the form of war; He sends judgments in the form of famine and He sends judgments in the form of pestilences, and immorality. And notice about this same time that there are millions of people starving in Africa, about seventeen million people in southern Africa and that famine is increasing daily. And the real thing is not here yet. And notice that with the preaching of the seals that something dramatic has taken place and that is that war is declared at this very same time of the preaching of the Seals. The great dragon is speaking from the United States; the beast is speaking like a dragon and going it alone. And they went down there to get Saddam. It's not Saddam Hussein they are trying to get. My beloved, they are trying to go up there for the oil. And the prophet of God said, "One of these days, Russia will go up there to get that oil." Yes, my friend, watch Russia. He said, "Watch Russia, watch Russia, watch Russia, the Spirit of the Lord says, Watch Russia." We better watch Russia. With my understanding of the Scripture, I believe that Russia is working underneath and is being a Judas in the matter. America thinks that she has an ally but it is prophesied that Russia will burn America with the atomic bomb. I want to tell you now, we won't be here for that. All you Americans, here, you are not Americans, you are Christians and the Lord is going to take you out of this place before that burning. We are a people that are geared up to escape the judgments and the wrath of Almighty God. We have been preparing for some time and we shall escape. We are going to escape the judgments of Almighty God. Look at what happened in the beginning of this year, my beloved, a killer disease that they curbed a few years ago called the Ebola virus just broke out like that and it killed thirty-eight people in the Congo. They are afraid of that. It infected thousands of people. The plagues, in amateur form, are falling. The viruses and the germs to bring the plagues in the tribulation are right now upon the face of the earth. My beloved, I assure you in a little while, you'll be crying to get out of here, as Christians. I'm telling you, they announced on the radio a few days ago, a most dreadful virus, and it has attacked the whole world. It's attacking the lungs and I understood it killed many people already. They said they are bracing for this virus. They have no cure for it. O my God, just to think, if that hits your house and your wife has that and there is no cure, and your little child is laying on the bed breathing and she's short of breath. O my brother, she's gasping for breath, and you cannot do anything. I tell you, we need the Power of God in a time like this. Beloved, the Lord is going to cause the Christian Church to cry out. Right now they trust science; right now they trust medicine, but the Lord is going to make them get down on their knees and believe in Divine healing. If we ever need Spoken Word Power, this is that time that we need it. While these viruses are coming upon the earth, we are still here. And let me tell you as a Gospel preacher, I am getting scared. My beloved, to hear of theses viruses… Because you hear it in foreign lands you don't think that it could come here. But, Brother, people travel from one place to another overnight and, before you know it, that could come right in our midst. It will get you on your knees; you will beg and cry; the Lord will put you on your knees. When you see that little fellow breathe like that and fall down on the ground and gasps for breath and you look out there and you see another seven year old fall and you see your wife lay down there. I tell you we are going to get to praying. The Lord is going to put the Christian Church into prayer and every little proud, arrogant fellow, little girls that twist their tongue and talk with a different kind of accent as if they are foreigners, the Lord will humble your pride. He is going to make you weep; He's going to make you cry. Yes, He's going to humble your spirit, I'm telling you that the judgments of God are sore; it is sore, my friends, and the Lord is about ready to visit this whole generation. There is only going to be one nation upon the earth where the plagues would not hit. When the plagues hit Egypt land, there was a certain place called Goshen, yes, a place called Goshen. And in Goshen were the Israelites. O glory to God! And there was a man called Moses with another man called Aaron and there were no plagues falling in Goshen. Let me tell you friend, don't plan for this but peradventure you love the world more than God; you love the pleasures of sin more than God and you happen to miss the rapture. Flee to Israel. There won't be any plagues there, that is if they allow you to come in at that time. But I will tell you of another place to flee. "The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe. (Proverbs 18:10). Yes, who wants to run to Israel? I want to run into Christ. Who wants to run into Israel? I want to go away in the rapture. Oh, it's a fearful time that is coming up on the earth. Youths, humble yourselves. I see some proud spirits upon you. I see some proud spirits rising in some of you young ladies. You are rebellious to your own father. Imagine that one father had to tell his daughter, "Get out of my car!" Yes, because she would not receive correction and manifested a nasty spirit. My brother, you did the right thing. Yes sir! "Get out of my car." Yes sir. Humble your hearts, otherwise, you're going to hell. Humble your hearts, youths. Most of the crimes that are committed today are by youths. This rock and roll music is getting the people demon possessed, it's getting the youths demon possessed. Turning upon mothers, turning upon fathers and that was prophesied to be here in the last days. "This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy. (2 Timothy 3:1-2). Forty years is upon us. Anything could happen. I am expecting and I am hoping that the Lord will outpour His Spirit. Without this Outpouring of this Spirit, every one of you will die with the viruses; you will die with the plagues. Without this Outpouring of the Spirit you cannot withstand the World Council of Churches. I'm telling you, my brother, there is coming an Outpouring of the Holy Spirit to the Church and you better be in preparation. O yes. There is coming something upon the earth.
My beloved, it's not a time to play games. If you have been baptized in the titles of Father, Son and Holy Ghost (like all organizations, you are baptized into the Catholic church. You need to be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ tomorrow. All these people who are going down to destruction to face the wrath of Almighty God, and impersonators will cause it. Heretics will cause it; religions will cause it; miracle workers will cause it. Perverters of the Word bind the people through their religion, bind them through their heresies, in this age. The Seals was opened to expose heretics and expose these heresies. If these men that are heretics and false prophets are going to cause six billion people to go down to destruction to face the wrath of God, should I play with them as a Gospel preacher? Shouldn't I expose them? Shouldn't I call their names? Shouldn't I say what is right and what is wrong? Is that right? Didn't the mighty cherubim say, "Come and see?" Didn't William Branham expose four horse riders and all of them were impersonators? Did he not preach the seven church ages in order to show the antichrist? Then anybody that gets a revelation of the seven seals, will be exposing damnable heresies. If you go through the tribulation, it will be a man who causes that. It will be a preacher who causes that. It will be a scientist who causes that. It will be a heresy that causes that. And I could prove that, right in your Bible here, my friend, these impersonators will deceive the whole world. Hear the plan of Satan for this hour. Thank God for eyesalve. You say, "Is religion going to lead people into the judgment?" Who led the Israelites into judgment? Wasn't it the Pharisees and scribes who rejected Jesus and caused Israel to perish? Do you know that was the same thing in the days of Noah? In the days of Noah there were churches and there were great men and they told the people, "Don't bother with any prophet, don't bother with any gardener, and don't bother with that fellow out there." We have the religions here for two thousand years now. They all perished. Oh beloved, hear it, hear it!
In other words there was a Trinitarian doctrine from old Rome and a Trinitarian doctrine came up to new Babylon and out of the mouth of a false prophet, which is the pope. He is the rider of these horses (Revelation, chapter 6), and by a Trinitarian doctrine they went to gather the people of the world.
What is going on at the present time, spirits of devils are working in the trinity doctrine through the radio, through the television, on the field, stealing people's money.
You say, "That is something already passed." Hear what the Bible said, "Behold I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon." (Verses 15-16). The world came together and has been slowly coming together. The nations, the religions are slowly coming together. Now all this gathering is for the purpose of the Armageddon battle. That Armageddon battle is going to take place a little later. What is going on in Iraq is not the Armageddon battle. It is going to take place soon. Right now it is a gathering. All churches and all these nations are coming together. It is prophesied that they will come together. It is a gathering and the religious men are behind this. It's a spirit; it's impersonators, heretics. That is why the Seals were opened it is to expose these people. Now they will accomplish a great mission. The great mission that will be accomplished from what I just read to you in Revelations 16:12-16 is going on right now; the gathering of all religion into the World Council of Churches, and America is going to take the lead of all nations. Now, do you see in this last negotiation here, she has no regard for the United Nations? The United Nations is only a figurehead used by America. America is the super-power, number one. She will take the whole world back to Rome and there will be a revival of the Roman Empire. We are heading to a one-world government and a one-world church. Beloved, what is going to take you into the World Council of Churches? Heretics, impersonators and workers of miracles. Now, should I be quiet? If impersonators are going to lead the whole world into the World Council of Churches, should I tolerate them in the message? Impossible, my friend. They must be exposed and the Seals were revealed in order to expose these impersonators. Revelation 13 gives you the Scripture of a one-world government and, if you do not join that, he will kill you and you must take the mark of the beast. Revelation 13 tells you that there is going to be a one-world government and Rome will be the head of it. Then, if you don't join that, they will kill you. But about this time the Seals are opened. God drops a message and we are wise to the working of the enemy. While the whole world sees it as a great move of God, we see it as antichrist. The World Council of Churches is antichrist. Anybody who belongs to that takes the mark of the beast. Anybody who belongs to an organization today will be led to the World Council of Churches and it will be headed by the pope. And then, who is this judgment coming to? Oh my, watch it. This one-world government, one-world church gathers all religions together. You say, "Islam too, a mighty nation like that?" Don't you see that in the making right now? Where did you ever hear that Muslims is supposed to join with non Muslims to fight against Muslims? Don't you see how all those Muslim nations cooperated with America to fight the next Muslim nation called, Iraq? My beloved, they already have the power. Do you know what the power is? My beloved, money answereth all things, and when the pope backs up so-called Christianity, Muslims will have to join with that and preach their religion. Protestants are coming into that, and all the other organizations are going to fall right into it. This will make up about six billion people upon the face of the earth. Now, this is what the judgment is coming upon. Everything that takes the mark of the beast, by joining the World Council of Churches and belong to that one-world government, will take the mark of the beast, "…and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name." They are under the sentence of Almighty God. Now, what caused the judgments of God to come upon this generation? Impersonators, heretics, heresies. The leader of the Pentecostal church says, "It is okay to go in there." The leaders of the Baptist church say, "It's all right to go in there." The leaders of the religions say that it is all right to go in there. They are liars! It is not all right! My friends, that devil wants to get you and me in there and he's going to apply some pressure by the World Council of Churches to close the church doors and to call for your job and call for your money and call for your house and then, finally, call for your life. Now, if that squeeze is going to come down upon us, we need something to resist that. And we need to be putting in something within our souls now we need more determination. We have to forget the love of the world and we have to love Life above everything in order to withstand that mark of the beast. If we love our belly too much, we are going to sell out like Esau. Fearful times are coming, children, fearful times are coming. Alright. I am saying that impersonators lead the whole world back to Rome. Should you sit under an impersonator? That is why I had to separate from many preacher friends because they are impersonators. Anyone who sits under impersonators will finally lose out when that Outpouring comes because they cannot prepare you; they cannot get you born again. No, they cannot get you Sealed of God. They cannot prepare you for the rapture. You need to come out of that. Come to a place where your soul is prepared. Don't you say so? I'm going to get into the judgment seal. Judgment doesn't come like that, friend. God is too loving; He's too merciful. Now let me show you. The seals were opened in order to set in order the judgment. God is an orderly God. He doesn't just get vexed and pelt fire down from heaven. He warns you and warns you and warns you. He's an orderly God. And this judgment that is recorded in the Scripture has order. You must be able to see the order. The seals were opened to set in order the judgment of the sixth seal. Alright. Now the same way the Seals were opened in 1963, to set in order the seventh seal, this seventh seal has order of how it is supposed to come to the people. Right now, people have it in disorder; There is an order of the seventh seal if you claim to know the seven thunders and the seventh seal, what is the order? I am preaching about the judgments of God and I will show you the order. All right, if you're going to preach, thunders out there in the world, show me the order. You cannot show me the order. Then you don't have any thunders. Finding the order doesn't mean you even have it, you know. When the seals were opened and this order was revealed, judgment did not fall yet. It only revealed the order of this judgment. Now, I am preaching to you the order of this judgment, how it's going to come, that you might be able to escape. All right, this is how the order of the judgment is going to be set now. Right now upon the face of the earth, all these people are being gathered together, in the World Council of Churches. When they are gathered together in this World Council of Churches they will want to force every little church to come in. That is going to cause what is called "the squeeze." The prophet of God said:
Alright, what is the third pull? Creative Power. We are coming up to that place right now where we are going to be squeezed out. About that time look forward for the manifestations of the Power of God. Alright, in a nutshell, my friend, this is what is going to happen. Among the Christian people who are looking for the Spirit of God, there will be a mighty Outpouring of the Holy Spirit. And that mighty Outpouring of the Holy Spirit is going to endue them with a Power that the world has never seen. It will raise them above the amateur judgment that is now falling on the earth with all these viruses and everything. And let me tell you something that is sweet. The Lord is so loving that He would give the world one more warning. Though He gave them a warning by a cloud and a warning for two thousand years and a warning by Malachi 4, He will give them one more warning through the world. You say, "Scripture for that preacher." "And this gospel, of the kingdom…" (The Outpouring of the Holy Spirit), "…shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations, and then shall the end come. (Matthew 24:14). You are getting ready to see mighty Power. Do you know what the Lord is sending that for? Hear the Word, my brother, "witness". It is not going to go out there and save billions of people, my brother. It is a last witness to the world. God does not pour out judgment until He first sends a warning. You say why does He have to do that? Forty years have passed and a new generation is born who have not known Moses. But they ought to see the "Joshua ministry," which is Christ our Savior resident in His Bride. The Church Ages Book, page 170-172, tells you about a super church coming on the scene. That's your "Joshua ministry," Christ resident in the Bride. Now do you see the order of judgment? That's the order of judgment. Judgment will begin at the House of God. It first begins at the House of God; that's the order of judgment. It begins at the Church. Before it begins in the people, it begins in the Church.
When is that going to happen? "Preacher, please tell me when that is going to happen?" When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day."(2 Thessalonians 1: 7-10). That shows you, that the great event…, O my God! the great event that took place in 1963 is going to come into the Bride. The great event was a mysterious happening. While the seven messages were being preached, and that great event, that great One will now be resident in the Bride to be glorified in her. And in her, judgment begins at the House of God. Yes sir, that is where the judgment begins. It begins amongst the Bride. "Now that Bride will minister the Word of God. I'm taking it in sequence here to show you. You have got to understand that. There will be a ministry to last about six months, according to the prophet.
It will go around the world as a flash of lightning, because that is how He promised to come.
That is where your lightning flash is, in the East and shineth unto the West. Yes, it flashes in the East and shineth unto the West. The ministry begins somewhere and it went to another place and then, my friends, the world gets their last witness. Who wants to choose the impersonators, go on and choose the impersonators and who wants to walk with the Word, come this way. The Lord is going to send Power to help them; He is going to send signs and wonders to convince them that their preachers are wrong. That these impersonators who are under the message right now by the ten of thousands throughout the world have the people in the house of hell. Do You remember that vision, that dream, house of hell? Now that ministry is going out there to pull the people out of the house of hell. That house of hell, is not only the organization, it is right in the assemblies that follow this message. And right now, I cannot go out to these assemblies and say, "That man is false." No, my brother, I know he's a devil; I know he's an impersonator but the people have no confidence in me. But when I go up there and I challenge him by the Power of God and the Presence of His Power and the destruction that comes from the Almighty, I say, "Repent or perish, you have deceived these people with false thunders, you have deceived these people, making yourself Christ, making yourself a white eagle. Repent or perish!" And when he doesn't repent, he falls dead. You say, "Does the Lord deliver people like that?" Boy, you don't know your Bible. One time Israel was in a great jam and they didn't know what is truth and what is error. And Elijah walked out there, he said, "Listen to me. The God that answers by fire, let Him be God." God sent down fire and consumed the sacrifices. And what happened? Israel was delivered. He slew four hundred of Jezebel Prophets. There was one time that a fellow, a man in authority, Paul was preaching to him, and then there was an impersonator there, trying to turn away this man. And Brother Paul stood still. He said, "Thou child of the wicked one, wilt thou not stop perverting the way of the Lord, you perverter, you impersonator, you heretic, will you not stop perverting the way of the Lord? Behold, thou shalt be blind for a season." Yes sir! And he delivered the soul of that man. That Power is coming back to the Church. Impersonators are going to fall dead. Ananias and Sapphira were impersonating Christians. And they came and lied to Peter. Peter questioned them and they lied to him. They fell dead. Brother Branham said, "There will come an Ananias and Sapphira showdown in the House of God one more time before the rapture takes place." How many believe it? I believe.
Friends, this is the only way that God will be able to pull out the Elect from all the assemblies that are under the heretics and under these impersonators. Impersonations have gone around the world and it is too strong. It takes the Power of God to loose these people. How much Brother Branham said, "Snap out of that," you know the man said, "I can't grasp it." Beloved, the people cannot grasp what I am trying to say, what you are trying to say, but then one day, "Speak the Word Power" comes. And Brother Branham said, "Gates of Hell give way, in the Name of Jesus Christ." And they ran out there and started screaming, what? "Delivered, delivered, delivered." (Works is faith expressed 65-1126). That must be fulfilled in our age; right in our age. So now that ministry comes to a close before judgments start to fall. The order of judgment. Now from among the Bride, according to Romans 11, "Out of Zion shall come forth the Deliverer and turn ungodliness away from Jacob." Somebody in the Bride is going to go over to Israel, preach the Gospel; and two prophets will accept the message of the hour. Those that go to Israel will have the true revelation of the seventh seal. That seventh seal will be the same revelation as of the seven trumpets. "What the seventh seal is to the Bride, the seven trumpets are to the Jews." That's the same revelation that's going to go over there. Now, the day and the minute that Israel receives that Gospel, six billion people upon the face of the earth will remain filthy. There will be a handful saved. Nobody is going to come out of that. The Gentile world is cursed! All right. The order of the judgment is being set now. It goes a little bit again; we will be upon the earth for about thirty to thirty-five days. The resurrection will take place; we will see the resurrected people upon the earth. We will be grouped together and gathered together in church groups and family groups making ready for the rapture. Because in that ransomed body in the heavens, we won't be able to find our wives and our children and our sons and our daughters and our pastors. They will regroup here together on earth. Now when that takes place, Christ must meet us in the heavens. He's not going to touch this earth; He'll meet us in the clouds. Now, this is that time that He literally leaves the Mercy Seat. Right now He is on the Mercy Seat! He literally leaves the Mercy Seat at that time and the throne turns into a judgment throne like you see in Revelation 4. That's where it is. Immediately! You talk about judgments here on this earth, my Friends. Immediately! And then, the rapture takes place, who is going in the rapture? Those that get a revelation of the man of sin and the Son of Man that was released from the opened Book, the seven seals, the Bible. If you follow a man that doesn't have a revelation of the Son of Man and the man of sin, you will become a foolish virgin and will not receive the Outpouring of the Holy Spirit. That is why the foolish virgins went through the tribulation, because she lacked the Oil. That Outpouring of the Holy Spirit must come upon you to give you quickening Power to go in the rapture. The only way that you will have that come upon you, is to have a revelation of the Son of Man and the man of sin. A revelation of the man of sin helps you to escape the impersonators and a revelation of the Son of Man brings an Outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon you. Isn't that clear like daylight? [Congregation says, "Amen!"] Why did the foolish virgins go through the tribulation? Nice people; organizational brothers: Pentecostal, Baptist, people that follow the Message, because they were too headstrong, puffed up. They want to live like the world. Although Brother Branham said, "Thus and thus and thus," they want to believe how they want. Although God sent true servants to them, they cannot pay the price because their family sits under the impersonators; they married a wife under the impersonator. They sat under impersonators for 20 years and they cannot pull up their roots! They made a lot of roots in the Catholic Church, Baptist Church, Pentecostal Church and they can't pay the price. Now they cannot pull up the roots from where they are at although they hear the truth, they cannot do it! Now my Brother, that's a lovely spirit, that's a lovely man, that's a lovely woman, foolish virgin it represent purity. They love God and everything but they cannot pay the price. And because they cannot pay the price, and they hope that, "One of these days, I will do that. I know what to do; I was told what to do." They keep lingering and hoping and trusting that they will change their clothing; and hoping and trusting that they will give up their little fornication; hoping and trusting that they will stop listening to the rock and roll music; hoping and trusting that they will obey parents; hoping and trusting that they would surrender their spirits to their pastor. And, "Bam!" A sound comes from heaven as a mighty rushing wind! There is going to come a sound from heaven as a mighty rushing wind and fill the Church of God and rapture her from the earth.
While lingering between the world and the Lord the Outpouring comes! Yes, Sir! And the foolish virgin starts crying for Oil. "Oh, Pastor lay hands upon me. I want to get it!" "Oh, you better run down and get the adultery out! You remember about five years ago I told you to get rid of that lying tongue?" "Yeah, pastor but I never done it, Pastor! Pastor, I want to get the Outpouring of the Holy Spirit!" "Run down there. They might have it down by the next assembly!" Jesus said, "And there shall be weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth." That is how He described the agony and the pain. Oh, yes, My Brothers and Sisters. So, the Blood is off the Mercy Seat now-the rapture is gone. People in the Pentecostal, the Baptist and all these other churches go on preaching Jesus Christ. They're preaching "peace to mankind"-not knowing that the Blood left the Mercy Seat. Beloved, if you belong to a church, come out of there and be baptized in Jesus Christ's Name. If you are a backslidder, come back to the Word. The Lord is giving you a warning and this world has a last warning by the ministry of the Bride of Jesus Christ. Now the Gospel goes over to the Jews and the rapture is gone. The rapture is gone in order for you to escape the judgments that I am about to preach on. You are not going to be here for the judgments of God! It is too fierce! It pays to serve the Lord! It pays to serve the Lord! It is going to pay off in that hour, Teenagers. Young man, it is going to pay off. Brethren, you have been here for 20 years, some 30 years. Yes, Old Soldier, "He is following the Lord for 64 years" Yes, and there are people following the Lord for 40 years, 50 years, 60 years. It's going to pay off at that time. This world is not going to get better. Friend, it's a downward trend and it's going to face the judgments of God. Friends, listen to me! This judgment is going to belch forth very heavy! Alright, now the order of the judgment. Let me show you how the order comes. You say, "How do you know all that, preacher? How do you line up the Word just like that and it sounds so real?" The sealed Book is open! The judgments of God are set in order. I don't know anything! The sealed Book is open. The Lamb revealed how this judgment is going to come, step by step. When the Gospel is turned over to Israel, it is going to be turned over to two men who the judgment will be coming from. Revelation 11:3-6:
This is your order of the judgment. After the Gospel, these two men will actually open the sixth seal. You say, "I thought that the seal was opened in 1963." My Beloved, the seals set in order the opening of that seal, literally. Moses and Elias were hiding under the sixth seal. Now this is the order of the judgment. These are the men that will bring the judgment. Now, what is the purpose of Moses and Elias? Isn't it to bring deliverance to 144,000 Jews? What was the mission of Moses and Aaron? Was it to bring deliverance to the Jews? And when they went down to the land of Egypt to bring deliverance to the Jews, wasn't the judgment coming from these two men? [Congregation says, "Amen!] Did they bring darkness? Did they bring plagues? Did they smite the whole of Egypt with different kinds of plagues ten times? This is the same ministry here that is now repeated in Israel. When God deals with Israel, He does not deal with the Gentiles. Now, in order to deliver the 144,000 the Lord now sends back Moses and Elias. Who turn the water into blood? Wasn't it Moses? Who shut the heavens for three and one-half years? Was it Elijah? Well this ministry is repeated in Israel here. Now note that word. It says, "They have power to bring plagues as often as They will." That shows that they are operating the Third Pull ministry, Speak the Word ministry over in Israel. So the Third Pull ministry, the Speak the Word Power is now turned over to Moses and Elias. And now turned over to Moses and Elias, God endued them with Power to bring plagues upon the earth! "What kind of plagues? Is there an order of those plagues? They don't fall by chance. There is an order. The opening of the seals shows you what the plagues are. "And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God." (Revelation 15:1). So right here in the book of Revelation it tells you about the plagues that Moses and Elias will be bringing. That is the seven trumpets. And I don't preach the seven trumpets. Though the Lord has given me understanding of the seven trumpets, I don't preach the seven trumpets because the seven trumpets are the manifestations of judgment and plagues upon the face of the earth. Now if you want to read what the plagues are that Moses and Elias are going to bring upon you for rejecting the Gospel; for holding on to your Pentecostal dogma; for not baptizing in Jesus Christ's Name; for cursing the name of 'Branham'; for saying that "He is a false prophet"; for following an impersonator, read the sixteenth chapter of the book of Revelation. It tells you what they are. It itemizes everything. The plagues are going to be very dreadful. So now the sixteenth chapter tells you about the seven plagues. We just read one here, which is in a simple and a compound meaning. These plagues come upon the Gentile people in the end time. You talk about sore boils! You talk about the fountains turning into blood over there. "It gives them blood to drink. Men are scorched with fire! The sun is going to get seven times hotter. It told you about locusts. Now notice:
That is what the sixth seal was telling me about! The sun refused to shine; the moon refused to shine. And what happened? The stars fell from heaven. Now this is the order of your judgments. Your plagues are written over here under the seven trumpets. I don't interfere with that! The Lord has given me understanding of these seven trumpets, but I don't preach it.
Now Jesus prophesied of this same thing. Now I could preach to you the sixth seal because it was to the Gentiles and this is what the Lord allowed for the Gentiles, to tell them about the judgment of God. We should not go and interfere with the trumpets. Now people rise up, impersonators arose and want to tell us that there is a man that is going to fulfill the ministry of Moses and Elias. How dumb that is! And they want to say that it is one man and he's a Gentile! (Soto Santiago from Puerto Rico). I quote Brother Branham from "Question and Answers on the Seals." Brother Branham said, "That man will be a Jew!"
Yes, sir! He said, "Those two men will have the spirit of Moses and Elias." My Bible says that they will kill those two men; they will leave their bodies on the street; and then they will ascend into heaven." Plural all the time! They have two bodies--not one Gentile body. They are both Jews! These men are born on the earth right now! They are waiting for what I am preaching here and what Brother Branham preached. They are right now waiting in Israel right at this very moment for this message of the hour. They are weeping and wailing and crying, right now, to get this message. I believe we will contact them before that time. Oh yes! Impersonators around the world have arisen claiming the ministry of Moses and Elias. I am about to prove them heretics, impersonators, liars and deceivers! When Moses and Elias come they let out the seven plagues! These men are not 'doing' anything. When Moses and Elias come, the 144,000 are saved! These impersonators cannot save themselves! So they are found impersonators and liars! God doesn't want a Gentile dog in Israel to be Moses and Elias! The Jews listen to their own prophets! They listen to their own prophets. So all these claims are lies of the devil, according to this message. And there are men running right around this country and trying to come over to Grenada and St. Vincent and Guyana trying to put this heresy in the people! I tell you, run them out! It's lies of the devil! I believe that heretic who claims to have that ministry will fall down and die very soon and I hope that these people repent. Impersonators ought to perish! Yes! If you claim that that man is Moses and Elias, I am asking you, "Where is he bringing forth the seven plagues?" And together with that, they make that man the messenger for the Bride and the incarnated Christ! He's not ashamed to say that, that Christ is dwelling in him and he has the seven thunders and the seven seals. Isn't that confusion? When God sends a messenger to the Jews, He sends him to the Jews and he stays with the Jews. When He sent a messenger to the Gentiles he remained with the Gentiles. And hear! When God sent Paul, He told him to go to the Gentiles. When He sent Peter, He said, "Go to the Jews." When the two men came together and they shook hands, Peter said, "I am going to the circumcision and Paul said, "I am going to the Gentiles." God called him as a light to the Gentiles in the ninth chapter of the book of Acts. One man isn't a messenger to the Gentiles and to the Jews at the same time! Absolutely not! That is confusion!
That is why Brother Branham could not go and save the Jews! The Lord stopped him in Egypt and said, "Turn around and go home!" "Turn around and go home!" Because he was a Gentile prophet and he was supposed to minister to the Gentiles. He also said that the hour was not yet. But God has a man now in Israel, somewhere, that will get the spirit of Elijah upon him, and He will have a Moses also. Now, their excuse is that "God doesn't use two major prophets at the same time." Yes, my Beloved. If God sends two major prophets at the same time (He is not a God of confusion.), one will take the lead! Yes, one will take the lead. One will be the boss of the next one. So that is not confusion, Friend. One will take the lead. Even though He comes to use two prophets, one will be the boss. All right. God sent two prophets down to Egypt. Don't you know that there were two prophets in Egypt? One was Moses and one was Aaron; and one was taking the lead? All right, it's got to be the same way today! Moses took the lead and he (Aaron) only prophesied according to Moses. Yes, Sir. That's the Word of the Lord! If God sends two prophets to Israel again, one will be the boss. God uses one man at a time! Oh, God, help me to meet these men! I believe I will see them; I believe I will know them before that hour! Oh, that will be a striking thing, won't it? Oh, God! To hear that we invited Moses and Elias! And say, "Brothers, just pay us a casual visit, please!" Oh, Glory! "We're not asking you to preach to the Gentiles, just come down and visit us!" And to know that Moses and Elias are two humble men that stand behind the pulpit. And they'll say, "My beloved Brethren, I bring greetings from Israel! Shalom! Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! Goodbye, we will see you again!" Oh, my Brothers and Sisters, what a faith that will rise! My God! To see the time is coming! Don't forget the foolish virgins will be persecuted and martyred like flies, after the rapture (Revelation 12). Nice Pentecostals, nice Baptists, nice followers of the Message, dying like flies because they followed some impersonator! Yes, Sir! I will hit the Sixth Seal and send you home. Oh Glory! My God! Hear this on this sixth seal.
Judgments and the wrath of God will start belching forth; there will be a massive earthquake that will shake the whole world. This sixth seal will be an interruption of nature as it interrupted nature in Egypt. It will destroy the animals, destroyed the water, it brought the frogs where they never belonged. It destroyed this, destroyed that, destroyed the trees, etc. It's a complete interruption of nature. And who is doing it? Two men in Israel. Why do you think they killed them? Why do you think they rejoiced? Because they said, "Our enemies who plagued us are now dead." Moses and Elias will come in there and say, "Let there be flies!" And the flies swarm all America, all Europe, all China and all Africa. It comes through television, "Who is doing that?" Two men in Israel. "Okay, let the police lock them up, get the army and kill them!" "And whosoever will hurt them, fire proceeded out of their mouth." And they consumed the enemy. They will come to hold them with the army and they'll just "Speak the Word," the Fire of God, and those men will fall dead! Just like when they went to arrest Elijah. He said, "And I, if I be a servant of God, let fire come down from heaven and burn you." They sent another company. "If I be a servant of God, let fire come down and burn you." And it burnt them! That's the kind of ministry that's coming upon the face of the earth. And about that time, Gentiles by the millions have sores and boils. Yes sir. The sun gets seven times hotter. Elijah will come out there; he says, "There shall be no more rain until I call for it." And he will turn his back and walk away. You're talking about famines, interruption of nature! The plagues get so strong; hear the sixth seal! Listen, you'd better get out of here, fellows. You will weep and wail like a baby. All your pride-you will swallow it. All the marijuana-you'll want to stop. And all the rock-and-roll music you want to listen to, you will forget it in a moment. You will bawl for my name until you have no more throat left. Yes! You will cry for God and there will be no mercy given you. You talk about a judgment coming on the earth! There will be a massive earthquake. Now when that massive earthquake takes place, the sun will blacken out and the moon is going to turn into blood. And the stars of heaven are going to fall. Didn't Jesus say that in Matthew 24? Didn't Brother Peter say that in the third chapter of the book of Acts? Read it, I'm not lying to you. This is what Jesus prophesied and this is what Jesus, Himself, is loosing from underneath the sixth seal. "…and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places." (Revelation 6: 12-14). The earthquake caused that. Don't you know that the tribulation and the judgments and the wrath of God will start with a mighty earthquake? Now, that mighty earthquake can shake the place and bring tidal waves and wash away St. Vincent; wash away Grenada; wash away Trinidad, if it still exists. "And the islands of the seas were no more." Talking about fierce judgments of God. Brother Ren, you won't be there! Brother Duncan, you won't be there! What do we care! We are leaving this place! Alright. Look, pressure is building up here, you talk about pressure. "And the kings of the earth and the great men..." The great! Is somebody great in here? They don't have to listen to the deacons? You're great, you don't want to be baptized in Jesus Christ's name? You're great, you don't want to hear about God having sent a prophet. You're great, you don't want to know anything about the seals. You're great, you don't have to hear the pastor. You're great because you got a little education; you're great because you're pretty? Your day is coming. "And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men…." You ain't going to bribe your way through this thing, Friend. "And the chief captains ." And the chief captains… are you a captain? You're a captain? You're a captain impersonator, you're a captain heretic? You are "revealing the thunders?" You're propagating heresies? You're condemning Bethel? You're preaching down Bruce as a heretic? You're saying this is not the Holy Ghost here? You're a captain? You followed impersonators, were never born again and have the people chained up. You're a captain? "And the mighty men…." You're a mighty man. "And every bondman…." You are not going to get away. "Thank God that I am not a rich man or mighty man." If you're misbehaving as a bondman you are going to get it too. "…and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains..." You talk about trouble? You're leaving the office; you're leaving the scientific work. I will show you that they got mad. Brother Branham said the whole world is going to grope in insanity. Yes, what is it that gets them mad? Let me preach a plague to you from under the trumpets. My brothers and sisters, you see all these televisions and all these electronic units, your computer and all these electronic games, where the youths get into a frenzy, into war emotions like they are fighting, and go and hang themselves when they lose? They're working up into a certain place where their minds are becoming perverted. Yes, and it is expanding into something that is abnormal. Its madness! Now, that has been going on for many years now. Understand what I'm telling you Friend. Be careful with these computers; be careful with these electronic things. They are damaging the human mind. Enough is enough! There are people who will stand there and quarrel, fight with the television, fight with the computer. They will start quarrelling because it's so real and the electronic games, they fight. It's a war game; it's a prostitution game; they lost their woman and to them it is real. They lost the battle and before they know it, their minds works up into such frenzy that the imagination opens up. That is going to come up to a place, now, and all that is setting for the tribulation. The whole world goes mad. When Moses and Elias call for a certain plague, they are going to look at an ant and see that ant, the size of a mountain. That is because their imaginations are damaged. The ant is a normal ant; the locust is a normal locust but they're going to see these things as mountains because of their madness. They will go to sleep and jump out of the sheets. They say, "My God, the ants came into the house." Do you think this is a joke? My brother, they run downstairs and they see the ants and they say, "I want a place to hide, I want a place to hide. Ma! Pa! Pastor! Ants! They're trying to bite me!" The kings, the monarch, the freeman and the bondman. He takes off with his motorcar and ants jam him on the road, on the highway. He looks across there; and there's a big locust! Oh my, they're everywhere. Nothing is happening. It's a normal locust. It's insanity. They look out there and they see a man. The man has a head big like a qualdron. I'm telling you that is going to happen. The Lord revealed that in His Bible. I have an understanding of these plagues that are coming upon the earth. It is going to be in the imagination. You're playing with those electronic things. All right. Let me prove to you that what I'm saying is the truth. They become so tormented with the lice, with the locusts, with the ants and through their own imagination they have no more hiding place. They hide in the police station; the ants came into the cell. The locusts come into the cell too. This time it's a small beetle. The beetle never changed. It's a small lizard but they see a great dragon and the dragon is spitting out fire in their imagination. Mad people! Now here, the only refuge… The king starts to run; the captain starts to run, the great men start to run; the bondman starts to run and they run up to the mountain. They say, "Mountain, too much torment, fall on us! Fall on us! Fall on us! Fall on us! Mountain, fall on us; cover us from the wrath of the Lamb!" It takes a mad man to do that. It's a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the Living God! This is the same kind of imagination that's causing them to kill mother and father. This is the same kind of imagination that causes them to come into your house and stab you to death. This is the same thing. They stabbed a woman one time, six hundred stabs, possibly with a small blade. And they asked the man why he did that. He said, "I seen a beast in front of me and I was trying to kill a beast." There was a man in San Fernando, Trinidad, who threw down his sister from upstairs of a building, went down there and took a knife, killed her and gutted her. Took out the guts and was dissecting her. The police came and asked him what he was doing. He said, "I'm killing a fowl. I'm gutting a fowl and trying to dissect it to cook." Madness! Beloved, this is no place to stay. (Come musicians, I can't preach any more.) If I were you, I'd make a change. In that hour, none of your religion will save you; none of your Hindu religion, none of your Moslem religion, none of your Pentecostal singing, none of your speaking in tongues, will ever, ever help you. If I were you I'd make a change and be baptized in Jesus Name-tomorrow. "Mountains fall on us." And hear what they were crying, "Hide us from the wrath of the Lamb." Yes, they recognized Jesus now; they recognized Christ; they recognized the judgment. They say, "Hide us, oh mountain." It takes mad people to say, "Mountain fall on us and hide us from the wrath of the Lamb." Yes, they run into a cave, they fly out again. "It's out here too. I see a big locust. Oh my, I see a big dragon inside of the cave. Help! Help! Help! Mother! Father! Pastor! Brother!" You're talking about millions of people screaming and shouting and weeping and wailing. "And there shall be weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth." That's your sixth seal. And hear this. "And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne …" You see the throne, of Revelation 4. Do you see the throne? They're hiding from God that sits on the throne "from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb. For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?" I will tell you who will stand, "Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord, he that hath clean hands and a pure heart, who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity nor sworn deceitfully." Oh, my beloved, I have confidence that what I have preached unto you and what the messenger, William Branham, preached unto you as message believers, is able to help us to stand. We would not face this judgment. Let us plan to get out of here, children. Let us plan to get out of here; let us plan to leave this place! Be determined in your heart, tonight, to be baptized in Jesus Christ's Name. If you are living contrary, if you're dressing contrary, if you are doing the wrong things, determine in your heart, "I'm going to set the right example." If you're a sister in your church, wherever you come from, and you're not dressing right, put on the right kind of clothes. Don't get heady and think that you know it all, Friend. I am sure that throughout this meeting you realized that you don't know as much as you thought you know. I am sure about that. You better humble yourself in the sight of the Lord and He will lift you up. How many believe the things that you heard tonight? [Congregation says, "Amen!"] My brothers, I am positive about what I am speaking, and I know the order of God's judgment. I also know the order of the seventh seal. Men who preach the thunders and the seventh seal don't know what they are talking about. They don't even know the order of it. The seventh seal and seven thunders start in secret, somewhere. We are going to hear a mighty preacher tomorrow. Associate Pastor of Bethel, Sookdeo Ramnarine. He is God's little servant; a humble man of God who loves the sheep, and he is like-minded like his shepherd concerning the welfare of the sheep. So the Lord bless your hearts. Beloved, I hope that you go out of this building tonight a little more determined to draw closer to the Lord. This is not to frighten you, Friend. If you're taking chances on the Word, you cannot run up at that time, when that great Outpouring comes and say, "Pastor, pray for me." No, I am not a magician. Brother, you have to be sanctified and you have to cleanse your life. You have to dress right; you have to do right. And when that Token comes, then you will be a candidate for it. That is how you're going to get it. And you will leave the earth and will not face these things. But if you continue in your evil, your wickedness, my friends, you are going to face the wrath of the Lamb. There is no king, no bondman or freeman that will escape. Even the vagrant is going to get it. He might get it first, he's already half-mad. Oh, my brothers and sisters, do you see the vagrants running in the streets here? My brother, they start running down the road. You say, "What's happening? He'll say, "A man is running after me." And nobody is behind him. He thinks that a man running after him. Yes, sir. You ever see a mad man act, brother? He'll take a bottle and start pelting. You say, "What's happening?" He'll say, "I'm trying to get him, just now, I'm trying to get him." He'll bust a car's windshield; he'll hit the next bottle on the wall. You say, "Stop your stupidness." And he'll stand up there and start quarrelling with an invisible enemy. "I'm warning you! I'm warning you! I'm telling you, I'm warning you!" Yes Sir, mad people. So now these people are going to go insane with the food that they're eating and all these electronic things and all these chemical foods and the chemical atmosphere. It is going to work on their brain cells and destroy their minds. Thank God for sane minds that God has given us, my brother, sober minds to love Him and walk with Him. Yes, my beloved I believe it with all my heart. Give us a little song there, Brothers. [Brother Peter Soon, song leader, leads the congregation in a song: "Awake Christian Awake and trim your lamps."] Top |
